Hi guys, Would anyone happen to know the length of the pushrods in a Desoto low deck engine I have looked several times and can’t seem to find any info . This is the 291 Desoto low deck engine. From what I have read,,,the intake and exhaust are different lengths as well,,,,correct? My engine didn’t have any pushrods when I got it,,,,so I am lost . At least with some numbers I can scout around and measure any I might find . Thanks guys . Tommy
I may have a set I can look at and measure.I can check tomorrow. I have a 291 crated up and saving for retirement project I.... Been sitting a while so I can't remember all the components I have
Well,,,,after further investigation,,,,I think I might have the info I need . If what I have found is correct,,,the pushrods are : Intake are 8.8 long Exhaust are 10.11 long If anyone has more information,,,,please speak up. I’m not getting them yet,,,,,but I try to investigate before hand to know the direction I want to go . Tommy
Sorry I couldn't find any and was too busy to post. Good luck with your 291. Post a build thread if u can
Yeah I plan on it. I’ve been working on this for some time,,,,,,it has been bored and machine work done . It’s on the back burner right now,,,,,health reasons,,,,,,but I’m still getting things in order,,,,because I plan on getting back to it someday. I have most of the stuff for the short block,,,,still need all the head work done . Still in the planning stage too,,,,,I haven’t had the cam reground yet,,,,,still deciding on the profile I want . It will come together in time,,,,,,and money,,,,,,LoL ! Tommy
